Booker ran to the man’s side, held his hand and began to talk to him, according to his office. The man soon roused, recognized his voice and said, “Are you Mayor Booker?”

This isn’t the first time Booker came to the aid of one of his residents.

Booker was hospitalized for a few hours in April after he and two members of his security detail attempted to rescue next-door neighbors trapped in a burning home in the Upper Clinton Hill neighborhood on Hawthorne Avenue.

Booker, who had just returned home from a television appearance, and the members of his detail went into the home to offer assistance just before 8:30 p.m.

Booker was later taken to a local hospital suffering from smoke inhalation and second-degree burns on his hand.
